I had the same issue with my PS3 i had to do a ethernet cable direct to the PS3 for streaming movies consistanty without breaking up along with playing online. My Wii on the other hand must have a better Wifi support cause that wasnt as bad but still cuts out 7x during a movie
Yeah, I use the Wii for NF movies and playing online too. I use the wifi connection, but I guess I'm going to have to buy a 50' ethernet cable.

First thing I'd do is buy a new router unless you just want to run lines everywhere instead but since you do have a much older router I'd get a new one

I don't think the Wii supports a wired ethernet connection, but I could be wrong.

I don't think that'll work either. BTW, I'd have to buy an ethernet adapter if I wanted to that Wii concept you suggested.

Yea not to bad tho $20 for an adapter, but you will want to have a ethernet cable running to it if possible for best connection

I'm in no rush right now. Was just thinking of ways to modify the setup. I ended up just cleaning the desk and wiping everything down, organizing all these damn cables laying around.

This is going to take a while to do what I planned for the Wii.

so I finally got motivated to get my evo back together (parts got here Thursday morning).... so Richie is down and didn't have anything to do, so I even had good professional help. we get the one side done, go to do the other, and oh, what's this, a cracked top hat on the coilover... F^CK. an easy oversight, but it'll cost me a few days, maybe a week for them to send me a new one. I had my alignment scheduled for Monday. That's not going to work
